The Ada area already has a critical mass of expertise, resources, and activity related to law enforcement, fire safety, and homeland security. East Central University (ECU), CLEET, and Pontotoc 
Technology Center (PTC) represent valuable "anchor assets" toward the creation of a competitive advantage for the Ada area in creating jobs related to safety training and affiliated products. In addition, Ada recently attracted a new division of Globe Manufacturing, the world’s largest producer of firefighter suits and other protective clothing. These complementary undertakings represent the emergence of an industry cluster with potential for significant growth.
This logo represents how the core competencies of CLEET, ECU, and PTC combine to create a law enforcement and fire safety training cluster in Ada, Oklahoma. This training cluster provides a unique incentive for businesses involved in the manufacturing and development of related products to relocate or expand in Ada, Oklahoma.
